Bilowgii 17

1 Oo markuu Aabraam jiray sagaal iyo sagaashan sannadood ayaa Rabbigu u muuqday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay Ilaaha Qaadirka ah; hortayda ku soco, oo mid eed la' ahow.

When Abram was 99, the Lord appeared to him and told him, “I am God Almighty. Live in my presence and don't do wrong.

2 Oo axdigaygaan kula dhigan doonaa, oo anigu aad baan kuu tarmin doonaa.

I will make my agreement between me and you, and I will give you many, many descendants.”

3 Markaasuu Aabraam wejiga u dhacay; oo Ilaah baa la hadlay isagoo ku leh,

Abram bowed down with his face to the ground, and God told him,

4 Bal eeg, axdigaygii waa kula jiraaye, oo adigu quruumo badan baad aabbe u noqon doontaa.

“Listen! This is the agreement I'm making with you. You will be the father of many nations,

5 Magacaagana mar dambe lama odhan doono Aabraam, laakiinse magacaagu wuxuu noqon doonaa Ibraahim; waayo, waxaan kaa dhigay quruumo badan aabbahood.

so your name won't be Abram any longer. Instead, your name will be Abraham because I'm going to make you the father of many nations.

6 Aad baanan kuu badin doonaa, oo quruumo baan kaa samayn doonaa, boqorrona way kaa soo bixi doonaan.

I will make sure you have a large number of descendants. They will become many nations, and some of their kings will also come from your line.

7 Oo axdigayga waxaan ku adkayn doonaa dhexdeenna iyo farcankaaga kaa dambeeyaba, tan iyo qarniyadooda oo dhan, waana axdi weligiis waara, kaas oo ah inaan adiga Ilaah kuu noqdo iyo farcankaaga kaa dambeeya.

I promise to continue my agreement with you, and with your descendants who come after you, for generations to come. This is an eternal agreement. I will always be your God, and the God of your descendants.

8 Oo waxaan ku siin doonaa, adiga iyo farcankaaga kaa dambeeyaba, dhulkii aad sodcaalka ku ahayd, kaas oo ah dalka Kancaan oo dhan inuu idiin ahaado hanti aad weligiin lahaataan; aniguna waxaan ahaan doonaa Ilaahood.

I will give you and your descendants the whole country of Canaan—where you've been living as a foreigner—as land to own forever, and I will be their God.”

9 Oo Ilaah wuxuu Ibraahim ku yidhi, Adiguna waa inaad axdigayga xajisaa, adiga iyo farcankaaga kaa dambeeyaba, tan iyo qarniyadooda oo dhan.

Then God told Abraham, “Your part is to keep my agreement—you and your descendants for generations to come.

10 Kanu waa axdigayga aad xajin doontaan, oo inoo dhexeeya aniga iyo adiga iyo farcankaaga kaa dambeeyaba; mid kasta oo lab oo idinku jira waa in la gudaa.

This is my agreement with you and your descendants who come after you, the agreement you are to keep: every male among you shall be circumcised.

11 Oo waxaad iska gudi doontaan buuryadiinna; waxayna calaamo u noqon doontaa axdiga ina dhex yaal aniga iyo idinka.

You are to circumcise your foreskin, and this will be the sign of the agreement between me and you.

12 Kii siddeed maalmood jira oo idinku dhex jira waa in la gudaa, mid kasta oo lab tan iyo qarniyadiinna oo dhan, ha ahaado kii gurigaaga ku dhasha ama kii lacag lagaga soo iibsado shisheeyaha oo aan farcankaaga ahayn.

From now and for all generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised. This includes not only your sons but also those born in your household or bought from foreigners.

13 Kii gurigaaga ku dhasha, iyo kii lacagtaada lagu iibsadoba, waa in la gudaa: axdigayguna wuxuu jidhkiinna ku noqon doonaa axdi weligiis waara.

You must circumcise those born in your household or bought from foreigners as a sign in your bodies of my eternal agreement.

14 Oo buuryoqabka lab oo aan buuryadiisa laga gooynin, midkaasu waa ka go'i doonaa dadkiisa; waayo, axdigaygii buu jebiyey.

Any uncircumcised male who refuses circumcision will be excluded from his people because he has broken my agreement.”

15 Oo Ilaah wuxuu Ibraahim ku yidhi, Naagtaada Saarayna magaceeda waa inaadan ugu yeedhin Saaray, laakiinse magaceedu wuxuu ahaan doonaa Saarah.

Then God told Abraham, “Now about Sarai your wife. Don't call her Sarai any longer. Instead, her name will be Sarah.

16 Oo iyadaan barakayn doonaa, oo weliba wiil baan kaa siin doonaa; iyadaan barakayn doonaa, oo waxay noqon doontaa quruumo hooyadood; boqorrada dadyowguna iyaday ka iman doonaan.

I will bless her and I promise to give you a son by her. I will bless her so that she will become the mother of nations, and kings will be among her descendants.”

17 Markaasuu Ibraahim wejiga u dhacay, oo qoslay, oo qalbigiisa wuxuu iska yidhi, Ma ilmaa u dhalan doona nin boqol jir ah? Oo Saarah oo sagaashan jir ihi miyey dhali doontaa?

Abraham bowed down with his face to the ground. But inside he was laughing, asking himself, “How on earth could I have a son at the age of one hundred? How could Sarah have a child when she is ninety?”

18 Oo Ibraahim wuxuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Waxaan jeclaan lahaa in Ismaaciil hortaada ku noolaado!

Abraham said to God, “May Ishmael always live under your blessing!”

19 Oo Ilaah wuxuu yidhi, Maya, laakiin naagtaada Saarah wiil bay kuu dhali doontaa, magiciisana waxaad u bixin doontaa Isxaaq; oo waxaan isaga ku adkayn doonaa axdigayga, kaas oo farcankiisa ka dambeeya u ahaan doona axdi weligiis waara.

“No, it's your wife Sarah who is going to have a son for you!” God replied. “You are to call him Isaac. I will keep my agreement with him and his descendants as an eternal agreement.

20 Xagga Ismaaciilna waan ku maqlay; oo bal eeg, isaga waan barakeeyey, waanan badin doonaa, oo aad baan u tarmin doonaa isaga; laba iyo toban amiir buu dhali doonaa, oo quruun weyn baan ka dhigi doonaa.

Now about Ishmael. I heard what you said, and I will also bless him. I will make sure he has a great many descendants. He will be the father of twelve princes, and I will make him into a great nation.

21 Laakiin axdigayga waxaan ku adkayn doonaa Isxaaq kan Saarah kuu dhali doonto sannadda soo socota xilligan oo kale.

But it's with Isaac that I will keep my agreement, the son Sarah will give birth to about this time next year.”

22 Oo kolkuu hadalkii u dhammeeyey, Ilaah waa ka tegey Ibraahim.

When God had finished speaking with Abraham he left him.

23 Markaasaa Ibraahim wuxuu kaxaystay wiilkiisii Ismaaciil, iyo intii gurigiisa ku dhalatay oo dhan, iyo kuwii lacagtiisa lagu iibsaday oo dhan, kulli intii labayd oo ka midka ahayd dadkii guriga Ibraahim joogay, oo isla maalintaas ayuu ka guday buuryadoodii sidii Ilaah ku yidhi isaga.

That day Abraham circumcised his son Ishmael as well as all those born in his household or purchased, in fact every male among the members of Abraham's household, just as God had told him.

24 Oo Ibraahim wuxuu jiray sagaal iyo sagaashan sannadood markii laga guday buuryadiisii.

Abraham was 99 when he was circumcised,

25 Wiilkiisii Ismaaciilna wuxuu jiray saddex iyo toban sannadood markii buuryadiisii laga guday.

and his son Ishmael was thirteen.

26 Oo isla maalintaas baa la guday Ibraahim iyo wiilkiisii Ismaaciil.

Both Abraham and his son Ishmael were circumcised on the same day.

27 Oo raggii gurigiisa joogay oo dhan, kuwii gurigiisa ku dhashay, iyo kuwii lacagtiisii shisheeyaha lagaga iibsadayba waa lala guday isaga.

All the males in Abraham's household, including those born in his household or purchased from foreigners, were circumcised with him.
